I solved this problem instantiating a new Date object in node.js:...

In Javascript, send the Date().toISOString() to nodejs:...

var start_date = new Date(2012, 01, 03, 8, 30);

$.ajax({
    type: 'POST',
    data: { start_date: start_date.toISOString() },
    url: '/queryScheduleCollection',
    dataType: 'JSON'
}).done(function( response ) { ... });

Then use the ISOString to create a new Date object in nodejs:..

exports.queryScheduleCollection = function(db){
    return function(req, res){

        var start_date = new Date(req.body.start_date);

        db.collection('schedule_collection').find(
            { start_date: { $gte: start_date } }
        ).toArray( function (err,d){
            ...
            res.json(d)
        })
    }
};

Note: I'm using Express and Mongoskin.
